More "a few extremists" in Iran

[ScottSA]

Iran's Supreme Court has acquitted a group of men charged over a series of gruesome killings in 2002, according to lawyers for the victims' families.

Up to 18 people were killed in just one year, but only five of the murders were tried in court.

The vigilantes were not guilty because their victims were involved in un-Islamic activities, the court found.

The killers said they believed Islam let them spill the blood of anyone engaged in illicit activities if they issued two warnings to the victims.

The serial killings took place in 2002 in the south-eastern city of Kerman.

That sounds a lot like some of the climate alarmists who want to put scientists on Nuremberg

type trials for not agreeing with them.

Funny how the human rights abuses in countries who speak out against Israel are repeatedly mentioned by the likes of you as the quintessential evil of all evils (Iran and Russia come to mind), yet the same abuses in the hands of Israel and its allies are completely overlooked (Palestinian refugee camps and Gitmo come to mind).

Oh, has Israel's Supreme Court acquited any of it's citizens for killing people for fornicating outside marriage, or not honouring their mother and father or anything against Judaism lately? I hadn't heard. I will certainly post it! Where did it take place?

Palestinians are never or hardly ever taken to task. They can lynch at will, kidnap and torture and rarely does it make the news. Never the less, Palestinian death squads are a weekly fact of life for the average Palestinian....

...I thought you were talking about Israeli human rights abuse? Okay, there was a woman yesterday complaining about harari modesty patrols...but no..they haven't scourged, stoned or beheaded anyone...they are so behind Iran

I see, so let me get this straight.

- Iran: evil cause it abuses its own citizens.

- Palestinians: evil cause they abuse Israelis.

- Israel: good cause they only abuse Palestinians.

Thanks for setting the record straight.
